Testimonials

Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.

  • ‘London-quality litigation.’

  • ‘David Hitchcock - excellent tactical nous. Simon Brew - he has a good feel for how to get a case to a resolution.’

  • ‘I have worked with Simon Brew for several years. He is excellent - very thorough, dedicated to his cases and good with clients.’

  • ‘TWM's team are great on the law and resolving disputes - they also know when to bring in experts to assist them and advise their clients and they do this early enough in the process for those experts to make a difference. As a result of early involvement of experts, they get a much better outcome for their clients than they would by simply fighting the case without this input.’

  • ‘Simon Brew is really easy to get along with, yet he is firm when needed.’

  • ‘I have worked with David Hitchcock, partner and head of the department, for many years and am always impressed by him. He is calm, pragmatic and (unlike some other solicitors) actually aids the resolution of his clients' disputes in an expeditious fashion. As a barrister, I am always comfortable with a case in David's hands.’
